[Mod request] Text chat for multiplayer

+1. This is really surprising Larian Studios abandoned the idea from Early Access.

As mentioned on their forum, there are multiple reasons why players wouldn't like to use a third party app (like Discord or similar) beside the game:

  • A player might not want to go in vocal mode.
  • A player might not be able to go in vocal mode because he's naturally mute.
  • A player might not be able to go in vocal mode just because he doesn't have a microphone.
  • A player might want to just roleplay in-game (it's a roleplaying game for god sake!) without using vocal mode (especially if his/her character is not of the same sex as the player. That might be immersion breaking).

... And having to type every single text by Alt-tabing the game would become quickly a chore!

 

I really hope either someone will make such mod or Larian Studios will come back on their decision :sad:

By the grace of Ogmha, please!

 

The roleplay community simply cannot thrive without this.

 

I would even say that a "chat bubbles" mod for the players is also necessary.

 

Antything that facilitates roleplay will be welcome.

 

But the a basic chat is the least of it.

 

How could they have not implemented this?

Surely, Cyric is involved in this folly.

I need this mod. I have a friend who is mute, and playing with her requires me to alt-tab constantly. I have to guess whether she's talking to me at the moment or not. The game didn't consider accessibility for situations like this. If someone could create this mod, it would be very helpful!

I would LIVE for this mod. Chat and Chat Bubbles has been the one thing I miss from other multiplayer games. Sadly not everyone uses or chooses to use voice due to comfort. I would really appreciate a chat feature if the disabled one from EA could somehow be reimplemented.
